Karen has a mass of 62.60 kg and she rides the up escalator at Woodley Park Station of the Washington D.C. Metro. Karen rode a distance of 62 m, the longest escalator in the free world. How much work did the escalator do on Karen if it has an inclination of 35°?

1 answer

Work = M*g*L*sin235

L = 62 m
L sin35 is the elevation gain
